Construction Trades Project Earns Certifications, Beautifies TRCC Campus

Tri-Rivers Construction Trades Academy students have completed the removal of the driveway project on the Career Center campus. This project included removing 250 yards of asphalt and 250ft of concrete curb. They fine grated and installed 425 yards of dirt. Then removed and raised an inlet structure for proper drainage. They will excavate, place and finish a concrete curb that is 150 ft long. To complete the project, they raked and spread grass seed, 100 straw bales and installed netting over all of it to hold the straw down.

All completed using various different means and methods with heavy equipment. This earned 10 students with NCCER Heavy Equipment Operations level 1 certification. These students completed the book work application and summer school.

This is the first-ever, heavy equipment operation certification in Tri-Rivers’ history! Way to go CTA students and Mr. Willey. Drive by and take a look.
